DWN-074 Pump Man is one of the robot masters from Mega Man 10 introduced to Mega Man Maker in version 1.6.0. He uses his signature weapon, the Water Shield, to attack enemies and protect himself.

Pump Man was a robot working in purifying water and due to his neat freak nature also volunteered to clean up graffiti from walls. During the events of Mega Man 10 he and many other robots were infected by Roboenza, which caused Pump Man to start causing chaos. He is ultimately stopped by Mega Man, Proto Man and Bass and later cured.

Behavior

Pump Man activates the Water Shield. After that, he performs low or high jumps in the player character's direction. If he jumps without moving horizontally and he still has his Water Shield, he will release his shield in a spiral outward pattern attempting to hit the player. After launching the Water Shield he will activate the Water Shield again to repeat his pattern.

Each of the Water Shield projectiles can be destroyed by repeated weak shots or by a strong projectile, however, it may be hard to penetrate their security due to their constant rotation. If Pump Man loses the Water Shield altogether, he will not attempt to release the particles and instead will activate the Shield again. If one or more of his Water Shield projectiles come in contact with a Chemical Solution with an acidity type other than one, they are consumed while diluting the acidity of the Solution.

Like Skull Man, Pump Man is vulnerable to being hit by Ice Slasher through his shield even if it is not set as his weakness.

Similarly to other bosses, Pump Man's jumps are higher if he is underwater.

His movements are inspired by Normal Mode in Mega Man 10.

Trivia

• Unlike Mega Man 10, Pump Man does not put his buster to water/ground to create a water shield. He automatically creates it.
